FACET MS-28720-4 is a high-performance, spin-on disposable filter element designed for critical hydraulic and lube systems in aerospace applications. It is constructed to meet stringent military and aerospace standards, ensuring the protection of sensitive components from particulate contamination.
This element is a direct replacement for part numbers AN6235-1A, 90005, and 569404.
Key Features & Benefits
-
High-Efficiency Filtration: Designed to capture and retain fine particulate contaminants, protecting valves, actuators, pumps, and other critical hydraulic components from wear and failure.
-
Robust Construction: Typically features a pleated media (often glass fiber or other high-quality material) supported by a durable steel core and outer cage, providing structural integrity under system pressure pulses and vibration.
-
Aerospace & Military Compliance: Manufactured to conform with military specification MS-28720, ensuring consistent quality, performance, and reliability required for aviation.
-
Reliable Sealing: Incorporates high-quality sealing elements to prevent bypass and ensure all fluid passes through the filter media.
-
Designed for Safety: Its robust construction helps prevent media migration and collapse, which is critical for the safety and reliability of aircraft systems.
